    Before You Let Your Cat Outside, LISTEN TO THIS — You’ll Never See It the Same Way Again

    Think your cat needs to go outside to live their best life? Think again! 🛑 In this fast-paced, eye-opening episode of the "Cat Addicted" podcast, we spill the truth about why keeping your cat indoors isn’t “mean” — it’s the ultimate act of love. 📊 The shocking truth: Outdoor cats have an average lifespan of just 2–5 years, while indoor cats live 12–18 years — meaning indoor cats live up to 4 times longer. That’s not just a small difference; it’s a life-or-death statistic every cat parent needs to know. We’ll break down: ✔ The hidden dangers of outdoor adventures (cars, coyotes, parasites – oh my!) ✔ Why indoor cats live longer, healthier, cozier lives ✔ How to turn your home into a feline wonderland, complete with window hammocks, catios, and even fancy cat strollers ✔ Genius tips to prevent great escapes (yes, microchips and Apple Tags included!) Whether you’re Team Indoor, Team Outdoor, or somewhere in between, this "Cat Addicted" episode will help you create a safe, enriching, and joy-filled life for your whiskered roommate. 🐾💛
